I really need an idea of what length skis I should be looking for. I'm about 6'3" and I use 184's for my pow skis. Is that longer than usual? I'm looking for park skis by the way.

Uhh I'm not totally sure I'm more used to the Metric system where I'm 202-3 cm's. I'm also only 18.5 so I'm not done growing either.
